### 5/5 — App ótimo !

Fácil , prático e ajuda muito !

### 5/5 — Ótimo

### 2/5 — Compte

*2026-02-02*

Pouvez vous faire en sorte que l’on puisse avoir accès avec tous les téléphones en fonctionnant avec des comptes s’il vous plaît merci

### 5/5 — Simple and easy to use

*2026-01-21, version 6.4*

Straightforward app. I’ve never missed a day of birth control thanks to it!

### 1/5 — Pay to use

*2025-12-27, version 6.4*

Horrible, you have to pay to even change the time of your alarm! At this point, just use your built in calendar.

### 5/5 — Great!!!!

*2025-10-28, version 6.3*

Has been a lifesaver. Has kept me consistent on changing my patch on time to void any unplanned pregnancy. Gives me a peace of mind.

### 3/5 — Updates defeat the purpose

*2025-09-05, version 6.0*

I swear this app requires updates once a month (I don’t get it, it’s a single-task calendar? Like my bank app only needs updates a few times a year, what is causing this to require such constant revision?) and kind of fails to serve its purpose if you don’t have auto-update for your apps. I’m usually reminding myself to update the app so that it updates me on what I already know and am now late on!

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-07-15, version 5.8*

Używam niezmiennie od ponad 6 lat, sprawdza się świetnie :)

### 5/5 — Ótimo por sua simplicidade

*2025-06-04*

Excelente e leve. Uso para acompanhar o uso do anel e ele cumpre a sua função sem firulas e  sem compras dentro do app.

### 5/5 — Fire

*2025-05-22, version 5.6*

Just makes it so easier, better than my period tracker app at sending notifications.
